* Besides giving cast and broadcast details for broadcast material on both TV and radio the Radio Times is also significant in terms of Doctor Who for including related articles and features. The number of cover issues reflects its popularity and standing with the BBC and has never been stronger since the new Who launch in 2005, with the series on a few occasions featured multiple times over the course of only a few weeks (for example near the end of 2009).
|publisher        = BBC Magazines
* No other television series have had more covers than Doctor Who.

*'''Radio Times (19-25 November 1983)'''
* Celebratory cover promoting the 20th Anniversary adventure [[The Five Doctors]].
* With a cover illustration by [[Andrew Skilleter]], this is only the second Doctor Who illustrated cover for Radio Times, the first being the cover by [[Frank Bellamy]] in 1972.
* This particular issue was hit by a printers strike that meant a reduced number of copies were available and indeed some regions received no issue. The quality of the reproductions (including the internal line drawings), suffered as well.
* For his cover work, [[Andrew Skilleter]] was invited to the Radio Times Cover Party this year where he received a framed cover.
* The cover illustration was later reworked (the Richard Hurndall likeness was improved), and used again for the first video release to not feature a photographic montage.

You may be looking for the in-universe magazine.

Radio Times is a weekly magazine that publishes radio and television programme listings. Once owned in-house by the BBC through BBC Magazines, its owners since 2011 are Immediate Media Company London Limited.

It also sporadically published original Doctor Who fiction, beginning in 1964 with the Christmas short story Barbara in Wonderland (which, contrary to expectations, did not star Barbara Wright, but did however feature the First Doctor and two Daleks). Other notable Radio Times DWU-related works included the first crossover between Doctor Who and another series (in the form of the 1965 comic strip Pugwash Ahoy!), the special Dalek short story We are the Daleks! in 1973, and the 20th anniversary short story Birth of a Renegade (1983). In the 1990s it even published a reasonably long-running serialised Eighth Doctor comic strip.

For a breakdown of Radio Times extensive coverage of the series (including covers, articles, features and offers):
